Chicken Tenders

Serving Suggestions

Method

Preparing the Chicken Tenders

  1. 1

    Bread the Chicken

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). In a bowl, mix the flour, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper. In another bowl, beat the eggs. In a third bowl, place the bread crumbs. Dip each chicken tenderloin first in the flour mixture, then in the eggs, and finally in the bread crumbs.

  2. 2

    Bake the Chicken

    Place the breaded chicken tenders on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until they are golden brown and cooked through, flipping halfway through.

Making the Buffalo Sauce

  1. 3

    Prepare the Sauce

    In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Once melted, add the hot sauce, garlic powder, white vinegar, and honey. Stir well to combine and let simmer for about 5 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.

Coating the Chicken

  1. 4

    Toss the Tenders

    Once the chicken tenders are done baking, remove them from the oven and place them in a large bowl. Pour the buffalo sauce over the hot tenders and toss to coat evenly.

  1. 5

    Plate and Serve

    Serve the buffalo chicken tenders hot with celery sticks and blue cheese dressing on the side for dipping.
